Hello, when a row is deleted on the spreadsheet I need the value in the cell in column "D" immediately above the deleted row to be deleted.

Is this possible
Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Can someone tell me if what I am asking is even possible. I have tried a few methods but end up deleting a whole bunch of things that I don't want to. This is the last thing I need for the spreadsheet - help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Please can someone help with this - as I said, is it even possible to do this. If not I will have to try something else.

Thanks

This will still clear the cell in column D if the entire rows content is cleared as well as deleted - maybe it is close enough for what you are trying to achieve.

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim i as Long
If Target.Address = Target.EntireRow.Address Then
    Application.EnableEvents = False
        For i = 1 To Target.Areas.Count
            If Target.Areas(i).Row > 1 Then
                If Evaluate("=COUNTA(" & Target.Areas(i).Address & ")") = 0 Then
                    Range("D" & Target.Areas(i).Row - 1).ClearContents
                End If
            End If
        Next i
    Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub

BTW - You should try to be a little more patient, it's a little off putting for some people if you keep bumping your threads every hour/half hour or so.

FormR, thank you for the response, the macro works great. Point taken with the patience - got a bit too eager with the project.
